During this week residents will be permitted to exceed the standard five-bag limit for household refuse.

In addition, residents are encouraged to engage in and promote spring clean up in the neighborhoods. The items that are collected should be of the type normally classified as household refuse and should be placed in standard containers for collection (bags and trash cans, but not boxes). Items that are classified as recyclable should be placed in recycling bins for collection.

If citizens have questions regarding the Spring Neighborhood Clean-up Week, please call the Central Maintenance & Service Facility at 335-1914.
March 11 CITY OF TROY ANNOUNCES ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY BAGS FOR YARD WASTE

Effective Monday, March 21, 2011, when Troy residents purchase “T” bags from the City utility office to use for yard waste disposal, the bags will have a very different look. The new bags will be light green in color, but will still be imprinted with a “T”.

The new green colored “T” bags are environmentally friendly. These bags can be placed in the compost area of the Dye Mill Road facility and will quickly decompose, leaving only the yard waste materials. This will also save a number of work hours each week as the current gray “T” bags must be opened, emptied, and then disposed of as solid waste.

Residents who had purchased the gray “T” bags may continue to use them, but they will no longer be available for sale.

The new green bags will remain at the same cost, $1.25 each. When filled with yard waste, they should be placed at the curb for collection by the City.

Questions – contact Scott Walter, Operations Superintendent, at 335-1914.
